I just made you a moderator in the large JW group so that maybe you can help me keep the conversations on topic. Please use your powers sparingly

We are just as close to 2030 as we are to 2004.

Why thank you! .. But to be fair... it is not only me. It is a team of people. I am not smart enough to code this whole forum website... but I am glad they let us use this section. ;-)
And I shouldn't forget all the people that share news etc....

Agape!
Status Update is not really for making searchable and shareable posts but rather just a quick comment I think
Your "wall" on here doesn't seem to work the same as a post on your Facebook wall so to speak.

Blood from recovered coronavirus victims helps patient come off ventilator in just two days
How many brothers and sisters are being confronted with this dilemma now?

혈장 치료로 2명 완치...정부, 곧 치료지침 발표 It has emerged that two elderly coronavirus patients in South Korea made a full recovery after receiving blood plasma treatment. Health authorities say plasma treatment guidelines will be announced within days. Kim Hyo-sun reports. South Korean researchers have proved the effectiveness of blood plasma treatment on coronavirus patients. Doctors at Yonsei Severance Hospital in Seoul administered plasma therapy on two elderly coronavirus patients,... a 67-year-old woman and a 71-year-old man. They were treated with plasma from people who had recovered and have developed antibodies to the virus,... enabling their bodies to protect themselves from the virus' attacks. One of the patients was discharged after making a full recovery,... while the other is set to be sent home soon. "The patients continued to suffer from acute respiratory distress syndrome even after antiviral treatment. Then we decided to go with plasma treatment in combination with steroids." Plasma is a yellowish blood fluid you get from centrifuging blood. It carries various nutrients including protein as well as antibodies. Antibodies,... which are Y-shaped proteins produced by the immune system,... stop intruders from harming the body. These invaders, called antigens,... can be viruses, bacteria, or other chemicals. Antibodies also enable macrophages to engulf viruses and bacteria. The South Korean government says it will soon provide detailed guidelines for the treatment,... which was also used to treat patients during the MERS outbreak. "The guidelines for plasma treatment are nearly done, and we will swiftly commence research on other means of treatment." For now, it's crucial to secure enough plasma from people who have fully recovered from COVID-19. The government also needs to prepare for possible side-effects as no large-scale clinical trials have been conducted yet. Kim Hyo-sun, Arirang News.

Last week, the FDA tapped the Mayo Clinic to lead and coordinate the effort and evaluate the treatment’s effectiveness.
Since then, hospital systems around the nation have registered through the Mayo Clinic to start treating patients with convalescent plasma. Texas hospitals that plan to try the treatment include Methodist Hospital Stone Oak in San Antonio, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas and the Baylor College of Medicine in Houston.
Five patients at Baylor St. Luke’s Medical Center in Houston — part of the Baylor College of Medicine — have been treated with convalescent plasma, said Dr. Ashok Balasubramanyam, vice president of academic integration and associate dean of academic affairs at the Baylor College of Medicine. The school has also been authorized to conduct a clinical trial, expected to start within a couple of weeks.
On Thursday, a patient in Austin received a convalescent plasma infusion, the first in the city, said Dr. Jeff Yorio, a hematologist and oncologist at Texas Oncology who helped get the program started in Austin.

Love your cover photo..... Rembrandt?

What country are you from Brother Rando?

Oops... I was the one who voted it up... and I just voted it down.
What do you think a good solution for that problem might be? I could ask the admin to make that "question' section a normal forum.....but then we wouldn't have the option of the "best answer" either....
Any ideas?
-
Thanks.
The "best answer" feature works in forums where 10+ different people answer a question that requires some expertise, and the one with the most expertise can bubble up. I think that questions here are often intended to start a dialogue, and the best ones go one for several pages. No one is really looking for the single most "expert" sounding answer, they are usually looking to see how the idea was responded to by some and whether the answers, in total, produced a reasonable discussion. Taking any one answer out of the sequence makes it difficult to follow the conversation or dialogue.
There are a few exceptions, but these tend to be questions with fewer answers anyway, and therefore the best answer is already somewhere on the same page as the question.
So I don't know exactly what to suggest, except maybe to default to "Sort by date" and then have a message that might say: "Sort by votes to find best answers." Even that option might only be available when there have been some votes.
But that's the complicated way to do it. For 95% of the topics, just defaulting to "sort by date" would be sufficient. In the topics I've read it is almost never used. I'm almost afraid that when people start using it more often it can be abused, too. I think it would usually be used as a way to highlight most interesting, most intriguing, most important, or "most agreeable to voter's way of thinking." Most of the posts that people would vote on are, in my experience, not even intended to answer the original question, but just to share some additional information.

Insightful. Thank you both! @The Librarian and @JW Insider
I changed it to a "normal" forum .... let me know if it works better for you or not.

-
no problem ... I can add them every week under each post ... thanks

I understand. I think we can start to train ourselves to direct comments to people's profile pages for off topic stuff.... until the software improves one day and allows for threaded replies.
The forum developers are still in love with old flat thread style forums.
-
The comment will show up across the website down toward the bottom of the page. Still relevant but not messing with the thread topic....

Bomba de barril"
La Unión de Organizaciones de Ayuda Médica, entidad benéfica con sede en Estados Unidos que trabaja con hospitales sirios, dijo a la BBC que el Hospital Rural de Especialidades de Damasco había confirmado la muerte de 70 personas.
Una portavoz de la organización dijo que los informes sobre el terreno sugerían un número mucho mayor, de alrededor de 180 muertos, pero que era difícil llegar a las víctimas
debido al bombardeo continuo y a la oscuridad de la noche.
Agregó que había informes de personas que estaban siendo tratadas por síntomas como convulsiones y espuma en la boca, que coinciden con aquellos causados por la exposición a agentes nerviosos o a gas de cloro.
El Centro de Medios de Guta, afín a la oposición, tuiteó que más de 75 personas se habían "sofocado" y que otras 1.000 habían sufrido los efectos del supuesto ataque.

You wearing a red tie in that photo above is extremely offensive to me. Please remove it immediately. I am "anti-tie" today. (this is an example of me leaving a comment about what John believes in an appropriate place)
John can thus reply to me saying that I should take a long walk off of a short pier and then ignore my profile.
😀
Thank you John for allowing me to use your profile page as an example to all.

7,677 Profile Page Views alone!!! Look at JTR go! .... Imagine how many views a day you receive on all your posts combined?
-
Is there any way to quantify that info? And in what time frame?
...anything I can take to the pawn shop?
-
I guess not... although I often compare modern "hits" to the time spent walking the streets "from house to house" to find one person "at home"......
We reach people in different ways and times with small snippets of data nowadays rather than the
192 page books of yesteryear.
It was truly a different place and time.

What is everybody up to tonight? besides on here of course.... I need to head to bed soon to wake up early for work. I had some pizza with some delicious Italian sausage.

I used to love your TomSheepandGoats blog writings. ;-) I look forward to hearing from you more.

This is where you would leave a status update on your profile page ;-)

Author of 'Tom Irregardless and Me' and 'No Fake News but Plenty of Hogwash'
These are the two books I occasionally refer to in my posts, whenever something is inexplicably in quotes. Please don't post online questions about my books - this is a discussion forum, not a bookstore. Message me instead.
Thanks, Tom

Why would someone order a bottle of Ethos water at the Starbucks counter rather than a free 20 oz glass of water?
